Anti Mosquito - Sonic Repeller

This Mosquito repellent prevents you from getting bitten by mosquitoes and some other nasty bugs.

The application emits a very unique high frequency sound (ultra sound) that the insects dislike. The pitch of the sound is so high that most humans will not notice anything.

Keep the application close to you and enjoy the outdoors without bites.

The app does not guarantee a 100% protection as there are over 3500 known mosquito species in the world and they all react slightly different to the repellent. Use the pitch selector to find optimal repelling frequency for the mosquitoes in your region.

Editor's Note: Just go to search and type the name of the app to download it for free.
